The State Department has made a determination approving a possible Foreign Military Sale to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia of AGM-114R3 Hellfire II Missiles and related equipment for an estimated cost of $655 million. The Defense Security Cooperation Agency delivered the required certification notifying Congress of this possible sale today.
The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has requested to buy two thousand five hundred three (2,503) AGM-114R3 Hellfire II missiles (3 for lot acceptance testing). Also included are support and test equipment; integration and test support; spare and repair parts; software delivery and support; publications and technical documentation; personnel training and training equipment; U.S. Government and contractor engineering, technical and logistics support services; storage; and other related elements of logistical and program support. The total estimated cost is $655 million.
This proposed sale will support the foreign policy and national security of the United States by helping to improve the security of a friendly country that continues to be an important force for political and economic progress in the Middle East.
The proposed sale will improve Saudi Arabia’s capability to meet current and future threats and improve interoperability with systems operated by U.S. Forces and other Gulf countries. Saudi Arabia's continued investment in its defensive capabilities is crucial to protecting its borders, energy infrastructure, and its residents. Saudi Arabia will have no difficulty absorbing these missiles into its armed forces.
The proposed sale of this equipment and support will not alter the basic military balance in the region.
The principal contractor will be The Lockheed Martin Corporation, Troy, AL. The purchaser typically requests offsets. Any offset agreement will be defined in negotiations between the purchaser and the contractor.
Implementation of this proposed sale will not require the assignment of any additional U.S. Government or contractor representatives to Saudi Arabia. The only additional U.S. military support required would be Technical Assistance Field Team (TAFT) visits during training phases.
There will be no adverse impact on U.S. defense readiness as a result of this proposed sale.
The description and dollar value are for the highest estimated quantity and dollar value based on initial requirements. Actual dollar value will be lower depending on final requirements, budget authority, and signed sales agreement(s), if and when concluded.

The State Department has made a determination approving a possible Foreign Military Sale to the Government of Egypt of Advanced Precision Kill Weapon System (APKWS) and related equipment for an estimated cost of $30 million. The Defense Security Cooperation Agency delivered the required certification notifying Congress of this possible sale today.
The Government of Egypt has requested to buy an additional five hundred forty-three (543) Advanced Precision Kill Weapon Systems (APKWS) that will be added to a previously implemented case whose value was under the congressional notification threshold.
The original Foreign Military Sales (FMS) case, valued at $8 million ($5.2 million in MDE), included two hundred sixteen (216) APKWS.
This notification is for a combined total of seven hundred fifty-nine (759) APKWS. The following non-MDE items will also be included: test support equipment; spare and repair parts; publications and technical documentation; personnel training and training equipment; transportation; U.S. Government and contractor engineering, technical, and logistics support services; and other related elements of logistics and program support. The estimated total cost is $30 million.
This proposed sale will support U.S. foreign policy and national security objectives by helping to improve the security of a friendly country that continues to be an important force for political stability and economic growth in the Middle East.
The proposed sale will address the shared U.S.-Egyptian interest in countering terrorist activities in North Sinai, which threaten regional security and stability. The proposed sale will enhance Egypt’s ability to defend itself against regional malign actors and improve interoperability with U.S. forces. It will also improve Egypt’s capacity to sustain security operations and strengthen its internal and external defense capabilities. The sale of APKWS will increase the Egyptian Air Force (EAF)’s ability to carry out operations against terrorist forces while significantly reducing risk to civilians. The EAF has already purchased APKWS rockets for use on its Apache aircraft so it will have no difficulty absorbing this equipment into its armed forces.
The proposed sale of this equipment and support will not alter the basic military balance in the region.
The principal contractor will be BAE Systems, located in Nashua, NH. There are no known offset agreements proposed in connection with this potential sale.
Implementation of this sale will involve multiple trips to Egypt involving U.S. government and contractor representatives for approximately three years for program management, program and technical reviews, training, maintenance support, and site surveys.
There will be no adverse impact on U.S. defense readiness as a result of this proposed sale.
The description and dollar value are for the highest estimated quantity and dollar value based on initial requirements. Actual dollar value will be lower depending on final requirements, budget authority, and signed sales agreement(s), if and when concluded.

Egyébként a 250,az fontot jelöl.A Spice 250 ugyanúgy az Mk81 bombára épül,mint az SDB.Lényegében a zsidó SDB.Umbani/Al Tariq éa a Raptor III is olyan készletcsaládok,amiknek van Mk81 bombára illó tagjuk,azok meg a búr SDB-k.
Al Tariq(Umbani) promó.Érdekes,hogy Al Tariqként se a boosteres,se a gt-s változat nincs az ajánlatban.
Mk81 nem gyártják kb. sehol. Éles alkalmazásáról még sosem hallottam az utóbbi 30 évben. Talán Vietnámban volt utoljára használva.
Az ilyen 250 fontos kategóriájú irányított bombák saját egyedi harcirészt cipelnek, mivel sehol nincsenek MK81-esek halomban amiket érdemes kiokosítani.
500 fontos Mk82 az "alja" minden légierőnél, ennél nincs kisebb bomba sehol rendszerben a Mk-sorozatból.
De,gyártják.Khm....Legnagyobb gyártója az RDM Dél Afrikában....És de,az SDB az egy Mk81 bombatestre épül.(khm....igen valószinű,hogy ha SDB-t rendelsz,akkor abbol maga a bombatest RDM gyártmány lesz.Ugyanis az USA a gyár legnagyobb megrendelője)
Egyébként de,használták őket,csak pont az USAF nem nagyon (A37,OV10 szorta azért Vietnámban).SAAF viszont igen élénken.(egy saját légi robbantású növelt repeszhatású változatot esősorban.Nagyon egyszerű ok miatt,a kis Mirage F1ek a nagy bevetési távolságok miatt sokszor csak ezeket tudták odáig elcipelni.Persze,ha lehetett,inkább nagyobbat használtak.De az Impalák is elsősorban kisebb bombákat használtak).
RDM egyébként az Mk81nél kisebb bombákat is gyárt.Ezek a fejlett világban nincsennek (már) használatban,de a mindenféle hátsósufniai helyi tovahubukban használják őket (anno a Tamil Tigrisek is 50kilós RDM bombákat szereltek a minibombázó Zlinekre.Kormyányerők meg SF260okrol rájuk szortak olyanokat)
Az SDB semennyire nem épül az MK81-re. Saját egyedi beton-áttörő harcirésze van.De,gyártják.Khm....Legnagyobb gyártója az RDM Dél Afrikában....És de,az SDB az egy Mk81 bombatestre épül.(khm....igen valószinű,hogy ha SDB-t rendelsz,akkor abbol maga a bombatest RDM gyártmány lesz.Ugyanis az USA a gyár legnagyobb megrendelője)

Az alsó a képen a penetrátor változatú Mk,igaz az pont 84es,de van belőle 81es változat is.....BLU sorozat is az Mk sorozatra épülő betonromboló bombák.
Kezd utána olvasni a SDBnek! Semmi köze az Mk81-hez!
Mutass már egy fotót ahol kihámozzák belőle a mk81-est! Nem tudsz!
Abban igazad van,hogy az SDB I épült még az alap Mk81 bombára.De a II-n annyit mókoltak rajta,hogy az már kapott egy saját tipusjelzést,AZB-81 néven.Ez keskenyebb,mint az alap Mk81
De ettől még az Mk81 családra épülő (vagy azzal szorosan rokon bombatestre,mert a Spice 250 is alaposan meg van mókolva) Spice 250/Raptor III/Umbani Mk81 ugyan azt,vagy még többet tudnak,mint az SDB.
Mondjuk a Spice 2000,Umbani (Al Tariq) Mk83/84 az már JDAM kategóriák.Igy ezek egy termékcsaládon belül lefedik az SDB és JDAM kategóriákat.Plusz az Umbani BLU vagy CBU bombatestekre is szerelhető.
Keresd ki a Janes bombakatalógusát.A franctudja hány féle al meg helyi változata van az Mk bombasorozatnak.Pl az RDM Mk82Mod5P az ugyan az,mind az USAF BLU111 500 fontos bunkerromboló.
